For cat owners

Ain't this the truth?




The Moll-ster has trained me well - although I try to break conditioning sometimes. And I regret it later.

Ranty McRanty part something

Shame on you...
So - a quick search will show that Newstalkzb has a news item about this. And lots of the newspapers on Stuff. So does TV3. There's even a link on the NY Daily News.
But, no matter how I search... I can't find anything on the NZHerald or TVNZ sites.
Maybe I just imagined that piece on the news last night...

Anyway - here's the official site for the complete list of winners and other stuff. And a post for work I wrote about the ceremony.

Hob nobbing...

I got to go the New Zealand Post Children's Book Awards ceremony! Anyhoo - the winners will be officially announced at 9am Thursday 20th here...

I'm not going to say anything - but you could look at the poster - and the cool loot we got too!
Yay for getting to meet & hug facebook friends in real life - congrats Tania for being a finalist.
And yay double triple yays Kyle!!!

Enough said

I'm so tired, yesterday morning I nearly crossed the road, honestly thinking it was the pedestrians' turn, when actually, the traffic lights had turned green - not the little walking man...

Is it over yet?

Each week just seems to get longer... so - hardly any posts or facebooking... just work and sleep.

Also - scary enough - hardly any reading! This carpooling business - fab that is it!, and spending time with sister and b-in-law is great - cuts into my reading time (unlike a bus trip, it's quite rude reading while carpooling, and there aren't any lights inside the car).

When I get home - I'm knitting. Got birthdays coming up - so doing the present thing. Little Frog is turning 1 and, as a grand-aunt, I feel it is my duty to knit him something, in green, to acknowledge and celebrate his first year on earth as part of our family.

As to facebook - it is so slow, I don't have the time - or patience - to spend it waiting for things to load.


But - here you go - a picture for you. In honour of my dad - a Sharpie fan - and the whole Star Trek thing...
